wow!!! i have found that i play better with my completely stock tippmann gun then with my flatline and an agitating hopper attached. does any body eles feel this way? maybe it is just i don't want to spend money to upgrade it but i did buy a flatline and i don't like it as well as my stock barrel.

all and all it is pretty fun though. my first game at a new field people look at me as any other basic player but then after a few games realize that i am good with my gun. some little kid was asking around what was the best gun at(he was carring a spyder xtra a think) a field i was playing at. he looked at my gun and said your gun sucks. so i shot him next game. i love my tippmann.

Stock as in stock hopper, barrel, and everything? If that is the case, I though I played really good stock, but then I got some upgrades and I was like "Wow my gun sucked back then". Just my opinion though:)

For me I like upgraded gun better. Things like getting an agitating hopper make it easier cause I dont have to shake it every now and than to break up jams. A good barrel (unlike the flatline imo) will improve your accuracy. Upgrades can make things easier for you so you can concentrate on other things, and make your gun overal better.

Stock can really work good because people will figure youre a beginner with a rental and not worry bout you as much. But yea, i can see you likin the stock barrel better than flatline, alot of people do.

Well I like my stock barrel, but 1 out of every 3 shots curves about ten feet to the right. So I am going to get an after market barrel. No flatline though:)

well i feel comfortable with my flatline on my a-5 and i adjust the shot if i miss but thats just me. I tried the flatline on the 98c and i thought aiming with it was weird and didnt feel as comfortable. But with the a-5 the flatliine is smaller and in my own mind easier to handle.
